Traditional summer festival of the Seybothenreuth Volunteer Fire Brigade on the first weekend of August — Live music, festival activities, and catering by the club.
Seybothenreuth is a municipality in the Landkreis Bayreuth district, in the Bavarian administrative region of Upper Franconia, located east of the festival city of Bayreuth. The Sommerfest der Freiwilligen Feuerwehr is the most significant social event of the club's year and a firm meeting point for the village community and surrounding areas.
The festival takes place annually on the first weekend of August around the Seybothenreuth fire station and spans two days. Live music creates a great atmosphere on both festival days; the fire brigade members serve guests with food and drinks — from Franconian bratwurst to freshly tapped beer.
The Seybothenreuth Volunteer Fire Brigade is a central pillar of village life and organizes five major festivals throughout the year: the children's carnival, the Maypole raising, the Midsummer bonfire, the summer festival, and the Advent market. The summer festival is the convivial highlight of the summer.
Seybothenreuth is situated in the hilly Bayreuth region on the edge of the Fichtelgebirge mountains. Club and fire brigade festivals are central components of community life here — the summer festival strengthens social cohesion in the village and is an important meeting point for the region.
The 2026 Sommerfest of the Seybothenreuth Volunteer Fire Brigade is scheduled for the first weekend of August — Saturday, August 1, and Sunday, August 2, 2026 — around the fire station. On both days, live music creates a great atmosphere, and the fire brigade serves guests with Franconian specialties and freshly tapped beer. Admission is free.
